dialogue 1

k:hey, Jimmy, you've been sitting in front of the TV all day. Anything interesting on TV?

喂,吉米,你在電視機前坐了一天了,電視上有什么有意思的節(jié)目嗎?

J: not really. Quite boring right now, actually. Mostly infomercials and public serveice announcements.

沒有啊.其實現(xiàn)在挺無聊的,凈是長篇的購物廣告和公共服務通知.

K: why don't you turn off the TV and get outside? You need to get some fresh air.

那位什么不把電視關了出去走走呢?你需要呼吸點新鮮空氣.

J: I know, I know.But my favorite show is on in a couple of minutes. It's the series finals, and I wouldn't miss it for the world!

知道了知道了.不過我最喜歡的節(jié)目幾分鐘后就要開始了,是這部戲的大結(jié)局,我無論如何都不會錯過的.

K: Really? What's the series about?

是嗎?這部戲是關于什么的呢?

J: well, it's about how an immigrant girl achieve her dream in America. It's a sitcom but really quite smart and really funny. I think you'd like it.

是講一個移民到美國的小女孩實現(xiàn)夢想的故事.雖然是情景喜劇,可是拍的很有內(nèi)容也很有意思.我覺得你可能會喜歡.

K: it sounds interesting, but I am not a big fan of TV shows. They're time consuming and don't have much depth.

聽起來挺有意思.不過我不太喜歡看電視劇,我覺得電視劇花太多時間,而且沒有深度.

J: I believe some shows are quite informative and interesting. Take this show for example, it examines American xenophobia and how it might conflict with the American dream, with hilarious results.

我認為有一些節(jié)目的信息量還是挺大的,也挺有意思.那這個電視劇來說,它就審視了美國人對外來移民的抵制心態(tài),還講了這種心態(tài)如何與美國夢之間產(chǎn)生矛盾,以及這種矛盾帶來的

滑稽后果.

K: really? that's interesting!

真的?聽起來挺有意思的.

J: yeah.Oh, here it comes! why don't we watch it together? they are going to have a court debate in this episode. It should be good.

是這樣的.哦,開始了,我們可以一起看啊.這一集里他們要在法庭上辯論,應該挺好看的.

K: OK, I'll give it a go.

好的,那就看看吧.

dialogue 2

K: Julie, what's on the tube?

朱莉,電視上演什么?

J: nothing but tons of commercials. These days the amount of commercials is amazing.

沒什么,全是廣告.最近廣告的數(shù)量多得驚人.

K: yeah. Maybe we can change to another channel. what about the sports channel? Let's see if there's a game on.

是啊,或許我們應該換個頻道.看看體育頻道有沒有比賽吧?

J: okay. Nope, it's a replay of yesterday's soccer match between Brazil and Spain.

好啊,沒有,現(xiàn)在在重播昨天巴西和西班牙的足球比賽.

k: it was a good game, but not good enough to watch again. Keep surfing.

比賽很精彩,但是我不想再看一遍.再看看其他的臺吧.

J: alright. Hmm,this movie is a rerun...I don't know how many times I've seen this show...Commercial again...and a replay of the talk show...oh no,

this show is terrible, you don't wanna watch it.

好的,這個電影是重播的...這個節(jié)目不知道看了有多少遍了...又是廣告...訪談節(jié)目的重播...啊,這個節(jié)目特別差,你肯定不想看.

K:ok, what is it?

恩,什么節(jié)目?

J: it's a total rip-off of an American reality show, but the imitation is unbearably clumsy.

這個節(jié)目完全照搬美國一檔真人秀,可是模仿的十分拙劣.

K: oh, I know this kind of shows. Sometimes they really piss me off. If I wanted reality,I'd go outside.

哦,我知道這類節(jié)目.我有時候看到這類節(jié)目就特別生氣.如果我想看真人,我自己出去就是了.

J: yeah...it seems what we have on TV now are either repeats, or commercials, or low-quality shows. There's really nothing to watch.

是啊,看來現(xiàn)在電視上不是重播,就是廣告,再不就是劣質(zhì)的節(jié)目,真的沒什么好看的.

K: I don't get it. We have more than 100 channels and there's still nothing good on! Maybe we should just turn off the TV, get outside, and do something real.

真不明白,我們有100多個頻道,可還是沒有什么好看的節(jié)目,或許我們應該把電視關了,出去走走,做點有意思的事.

J: cool.

好的.
